The enclosure is currently under construction, but I got round to uploading the pics with some blurb.
The bracing will be added later. Although the last pic shows both side panels attached, only one is actually fixed permanantly. The other will be glued and fixed in after the bracing goes in.
I've had a change of heart, and going to change it into a sealed design.

to get the required volume of your enclosure, for the sealed enclosure, did you just get the required volume of one woofer then multiplied it by 2?
When a company submit the T/S for a specific driver, do they care about the air gap behind the cone and the volume of the driver itself or it has nothing to do with the needed enclosure size? Do we have to care about its volume when we compute a box ?
I model both drivers together (wired in parallel) using Unibox and let the app spit out the numbers.
Whether the manufacturers care or not, I don't know. But you should take the driver displacement into account when designing a box, more so for large drivers as the basket/magnet structures can be of some significant volume (although this is minor in most cases).
I use the volume of a frustrum cone to calculate speaker displacement.
